red Bata

Last one for this year... Bata building on Wenceslas square, where the main festivities tonight take place.

warm tea break

In a čajovna again... Really, it's too cold to stay outside, and being at home the whole day can get boring...

shelter

During these cold winter days, there is no better place than a warm and fragrant cajovna (tea place) to spend the end of the afternoon.

obvious and easy

There is a few buildings so well lit as the Theatre of the Estates at night in Prague... well then it makes it stand out and facilitate our photo cravings :)

anges gardiens

On Charles Bridge

black and gold

Grey during the day, the glass facade of the Laterna Magika turns golden at night

christmas boredom

I'm fed up with Christmas already. If only the weather wasn't so grey at least... sun or snow, please something!

christmas special 2 : the food

the carps! At D-7, these big blue plastic bowls appear in the streets, together with their vendors and a "table" where they're killed and cut at the buyer's request. Or they can also be taken home alive, where, according to the legend, they'd be put in the house's bathtub until their time comes, on the evening of december 24th...

wooden umbrellas

Under the "umbrellas" pf the 70's shopping centre Kotva on namesti republiky

christmas special 1 : decorate

So everybody should have his jmelí by now...we can get it natural, golden or silver, to decorate our interiors for the holidays.

lit

The building i photographed here looks better at 8 in the morning from the tram

just a post office

What I love about Prague is that one gets to see and be in beautiful places in the daily routine... here a glimpse of the main post office, on Jindrisska street in New Town. It is open almost 24 hours a day ( with a break from midnight to 2am). Could be practical.

offbeat

Some passages are really deserted... even when they are right in the center. This one goes from Vaclavske namesti ( Wenceslas square) but is empty most of the time...

lost in time

New Town, december 2008. Or december 1982?

old pink

Aaaaah these facades in Old Town...

strange ways

The Olsanka cemetary, at the limit of Vinohrady... of course the fogs adds a gloomy note, but it's quite a pleasant way to cross this part of the city, among the trees and sculptures.

blue cut

These days, around 4.30 pm...

skittle game

Going for a game...

dark

bar interior again... I post a lot of dark or interior pictures these days, but with the night falling at 15h45, it's hard to do otherwise...and it's the perfect season to go deep down for the evenings.

answer

Thanks to those who have participated yesterday... i see not many were inspired... and that there aren't many supporters of vegetarian food around!
Because it was actually a picture of the beautiful vault inside Lehka Hlava, a vegetarian restaurant opened 2-3 years ago in the heart of Prague 2, in Borsov street, which you see above. This space used to be my very favourite place in the world when it housed a cajovna, now I go there only every now and then, but the brunch on Sunday was really good :)

p.s. i'll come back to the "cajovnas", or tea places, soon...

let's play

Guess where this picture was taken...as a clue, you have the right to know that it has been taken today, around 1:30 pm.

star gate

Sometimes I really have the impression to be in a cinema decor for a 70's sci-fi movie...

drinks

Nice evening yesterday, in one of these "2 storey club/bar" Prague is rich of...

after

Just after a concert, in Roxy, Old Town's famous club, on the premises of a former cinema.
